(0)Hellenic Republic of Parc-Ex vs Bramabulls(10) Game 2
The Bramabulls had a week to figure things out and what a way to respond with a crushing victory to even up the series. Wasting no time whatsoever, the division leaders struck early notching four first period tallies sending an early and clear message that they meant business. M.Richard, M.Cerone and M.Testolina all had two goals a piece and G.Follano was flawless in nets allowing nothing behind him.
(4)Bramabulls vs Hellenic Republic of Parc-Ex(0) Game 3
Momentum proves to be a determining factor as the Bramabulls continued on their winning ways. Showing complete will and desire to advance, the Bramabulls carried their game immediately into game three riffling four goals in the span of eight minutes to blank the Hellenic Republic of Parc-Ex for a second straight time. M.Testolina opened the scoring which was good enough for the game winner and for a second straight game, G.Follano kept a clean sheet to earning another shutout.
(1)Dark Warriors vs Smackdaddys(4) Game 2
After settling for a 3-3 tie in last weeks battle, each side had to lay everything on the line in hopes of advancing to the big dance. Although it was the Dark Warriors striking first with a lone opening period tally from E.Girouard, the rest of the match belonged to the Smackdaddys. F.Remon and S.Euchi took over by the second frame notching a goal each while C.Magri and A.Romano added third period insurance markers to cap off the series. S.Morante did his part in a large way allowing only one first period goal before going perfect the rest of the way.
The Boston Pizza player of the night goes to Gerardo Follano of the Bramabulls. In back to back games, the veteran net minder denied everything in his direction earning two shutouts.
The Bramabulls and the Smackdaddys are left with only one task to achieve what they’ve been playing for. One things for sure is that this series will be a heated battle and will need at least a pair of full 45 minute games to determine a champion.
